Chile

Thanks to the mountainous terrain and ideal mix of climates, Chile provides a perfect home for mining companies. As the world's largest exporter of Copper (approx. 72%), Chile hosts over 2000 metals suppliers and miners. Chile's rich mineral deposits include Copper, Gold, Silver, Lithium and Graphite.
